API Reference

Emails

// Send transactional email
await client.emails.send({
  to: 'user@example.com',
  subject: 'Hello!',
  html: '<h1>Welcome!</h1>',
  fromName: 'Acme',
  fromEmail: 'hello@acme.com',
});

// Send with template
await client.emails.sendTemplate({
  to: 'user@example.com',
  templateId: 'tmpl_welcome',
  variables: { firstName: 'John' }
});

Subscribers

// Create subscriber
const { subscriber } = await client.subscribers.create({
  email: 'user@example.com',
  firstName: 'John',
  tags: ['newsletter', 'premium']
});

// List subscribers
const { subscribers, total } = await client.subscribers.list({
  limit: 50,
  offset: 0
});

Campaigns

// Send campaign
await client.campaigns.send({
  name: 'Weekly Newsletter',
  subject: 'What\'s new this week',
  fromName: 'Company Newsletter',
  fromEmail: 'news@company.com',
  html: '<h1>Hello {{first_name}}!</h1>',
  tags: ['newsletter'] // Filter by subscriber tags
});

Domains

// Add sending domain
const { domain } = await client.domains.create({
  domain: 'yourcompany.com'
});

console.log('DNS Records to add:', domain.dnsRecords);

Organization & Industries

Set your industry during onboarding to get pre-built templates and workflows.

import { SendMailOS, INDUSTRIES } from '@sendmailos/sdk';

const client = new SendMailOS('sk_live_...');

// Get current organization
const org = await client.organization.get();

// Set industries (multi-select)
await client.organization.setIndustries(['ecommerce', 'saas']);

// Convert to agency account (enables workspaces)
await client.organization.convertToAgency();

// Available industries (50+)
console.log(INDUSTRIES);
// { hotels: 'Hotels & Hospitality', restaurants: 'Restaurants & Food Service', ... }

Supported Industries

Hotels, Restaurants, Gyms, Travel Agencies, Real Estate, Schools, E-commerce, Dentists, Car Dealerships, Events, Beauty Salons, Law Firms, Non-Profits, SaaS, Recruitment, Insurance, Online Courses, Municipalities, Personal Trainers, Influencers, Doctors/Clinics, Nightclubs, Coworking, Wedding Planners, Art Galleries, Car Rentals, Podcasters, Consultants, Bakeries, Veterinarians, Airbnb Hosts, Accountants, Developers, Musicians, Spas, Bookstores, Cleaning Services, Churches, Graphic Designers, Coffee Shops, Florists, Political Campaigns, Libraries, Taxis/Limos, Home Inspectors, Photographers, Universities, Fashion, Nutritionists, Startups

Agency Workspaces

Agencies can manage multiple clients from one account, each with isolated data.

// Convert to agency account first
await client.organization.convertToAgency();

// Create client workspaces
const pizzaPlace = await client.workspaces.create({
  name: 'Pizza Palace',
  industry: 'restaurants',
  import_templates: true  // Auto-import restaurant templates
});

const gym = await client.workspaces.create({
  name: 'FitLife Gym',
  industry: 'gyms',
  import_templates: true
});

// List all clients
const { workspaces } = await client.workspaces.list();
for (const ws of workspaces) {
  console.log(`${ws.name}: ${ws.stats?.subscribers} subscribers`);
}

// Get detailed stats
const details = await client.workspaces.get(pizzaPlace.id);
console.log(details.stats);
// { total_subscribers: 1200, active_subscribers: 1150, total_campaigns: 24, ... }

// Invite client to view reports
await client.workspaces.inviteClient(pizzaPlace.id, 'owner@pizzapalace.com');

Pixel Tracking

Track website visitors and connect their behavior to email campaigns.

Basic Setup

import { SendmailPixel } from '@sendmailos/sdk';

const pixel = new SendmailPixel({
  token: 'pk_live_your_public_key',
  debug: false // Set true for console logging
});

pixel.init();

Track Events

// Track custom events
pixel.track('button_clicked', { button_id: 'cta-signup' });

// Track page views (called automatically on init)
pixel.pageView();

// Identify a visitor by email
pixel.identify('user@example.com', {
  first_name: 'John',
  plan: 'premium'
});

Privacy Controls

// Opt out of tracking (e.g., user declines cookies)
pixel.optOut();

// Opt back in
pixel.optIn();

// Check opt-out status
if (pixel.isOptedOut()) {
  console.log('Tracking disabled');
}

// Reset identity (e.g., on logout)
pixel.reset();

Global smp() Function

For script tag usage, use createGlobalPixel to set up a global smp() function:

import { createGlobalPixel } from '@sendmailos/sdk';

createGlobalPixel({ token: 'pk_live_...' });

// Now use anywhere:
smp('track', 'event_name', { property: 'value' });
smp('identify', 'user@example.com');
smp('optOut');
smp('optIn');

React Pixel Hooks

import { usePixel, usePageTracking, useIdentifyOnLogin } from '@sendmailos/sdk/react';

// Basic usage
function MyComponent() {
  const { track, identify, optOut } = usePixel('pk_live_...');

  return (
    <button onClick={() => track('button_clicked', { id: 'cta' })}>
      Click Me
    </button>
  );
}

// Auto page tracking (Next.js App Router)
function Layout({ children }) {
  const pathname = usePathname();
  usePageTracking('pk_live_...', pathname);
  return <>{children}</>;
}

// Auto identify on login
function App() {
  const { user } = useAuth();
  useIdentifyOnLogin('pk_live_...', user?.email, {
    first_name: user?.firstName,
    plan: user?.plan
  });
  return <Main />;
}

Data Attributes

Track clicks without JavaScript using HTML data attributes:

<button data-smp-track="signup_clicked">Sign Up</button>

<button
  data-smp-track="button_clicked"
  data-smp-track-button-id="cta-main"
  data-smp-track-variant="blue"
>
  Get Started
</button>

React Integration

import { SendMailOSProvider, SubscribeForm } from '@sendmailos/sdk/react';

function App() {
  return (
    <SendMailOSProvider publicKey="pk_live_...">
      <SubscribeForm
        tags={['newsletter']}
        onSuccess={() => console.log('Subscribed!')}
        buttonText="Join Newsletter"
      />
    </SendMailOSProvider>
  );
}

Custom Form with Hook

import { useSubscribe } from '@sendmailos/sdk/react';

function CustomForm() {
  const { subscribe, isLoading, error, isSuccess } = useSubscribe();
  const [email, setEmail] = useState('');

  const handleSubmit = async (e) => {
    e.preventDefault();
    await subscribe({ email, tags: ['newsletter'] });
  };

  if (isSuccess) return <p>Thanks for subscribing!</p>;

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      <input
        type="email"
        value={email}
        onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)}
      />
      <button disabled={isLoading}>
        {isLoading ? 'Subscribing...' : 'Subscribe'}
      </button>
      {error && <p>{error.message}</p>}
    </form>
  );
}

Webhook Verification

import { verifyWebhookSignature } from '@sendmailos/sdk';

app.post('/webhooks', (req, res) => {
  const isValid = verifyWebhookSignature({
    payload: JSON.stringify(req.body),
    signature: req.headers['x-sendmailos-signature'],
    timestamp: req.headers['x-sendmailos-timestamp'],
    secret: process.env.WEBHOOK_SECRET
  });

  if (!isValid) {
    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid signature' });
  }

  // Process webhook event
  const event = req.body;
  console.log('Event:', event.type);

  res.status(200).json({ received: true });
});

Error Handling

import { SendMailOS, SendMailOSError, RateLimitError } from '@sendmailos/sdk';

try {
  await client.emails.send({ ... });
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof RateLimitError) {
    console.log(`Rate limited. Retry after ${error.retryAfter}s`);
  } else if (error instanceof SendMailOSError) {
    console.log(`Error: ${error.message} (${error.code})`);
  }
}

Security

Never expose secret keys (sk_*) in client-side code
Use public keys (pk_*) for React components
Verify webhook signatures to prevent spoofing
Use environment variables for API keys
